Featured Artists

Tom Bartel
Tom is ceramicist, currently based in Athens, OH. His work "uses the human condition as a point of departure where themes related to gender, rites of passage, fertility and mortality are constant "threads" within my creative practice."

Tammy Schweinhagen
Tammy's passion for beading was inspired by the desire to make jewelry for her mother who could never wear metal. She first began exploring the medium in 2009 and has been producing hand beaded jewelry ever since. Tammy is currently based in Pittsburgh, PA.

Amy Chase
Amy is an artist, currently based in Goshen, KY. "My work investigates the relationships between objects. I am concerned with the formal design of the object while focusing on representing personal relationships, memories or situations of my own experiences."
